Lord, help the ones in Haiti!

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (AP) - Haitians piled bodies along the devastated streets of their capital Wednesday after a powerful earthquake flattened the president's palace, the cathedral, hospitals, schools, the main prison and whole neighborhoods. Officials feared hundreds of thousands may have perished but there was no firm count.

Going beyond outreach means more than shaking your head and saying “That’s a shame.”

It means going beyond ‘saying a prayer for them.’

Do what you can.

Do more than anyone expects.

Give.

Go if you can.

Pray earnestly. Learn the names of cities, neighborhoods, people and pray for them. Remember those who are suffering, as though it were you suffering with them in your own body (Hebrews 13:3).
